Diffusers
Comfort for Any Business Situation
You take your comfort very seriously.
You take the aesthetics of your
office very seriously.
That’s why
we offer the
best line of
diffusers
you’ll never see.
So do we.
So do we.
The Trane Company knows
that you have more than one
goal in mind when you select air
diffusers for your office building.
The air diffuser is the interface
between the HVAC duct system
and the occupied space.
A diffuser’s primary purpose is
to introduce conditioned air into
the room without creating
uncomfortable drafts or
excessive noise.
Its secondary role is just as
important. The diffuser needs to
look nice. In fact, it should blend
with the room decor so well you
don’t even notice it.
The Right Diffuser Is the One
You Never Notice
Fixed Vane Linear Slot Diffuser
The fixed vane linear slot diffuser
is the most popular type of
diffuser in variable air volume
systems due to its simplicity and
excellent performance over a
wide range of discharge air
velocities.
The linear diffuser:
• is effective with both heating and
cooling, constant volume or variable
air volume operations.
• blends well with most ceiling styles.
• is available with one to four slots and
in a variety of lengths ranging from 24
to 60 inches.
Adjustable Vane Slot Diffuser
The line of adjustable vane
diffusers has many of the same
features of the linear slot
diffuser, plus it:
• can be positioned to vary the
direction of airflow.
• is available with one to four slots
providing adaptability to occupant
and room configuration.
• comes in sizes ranging from
22 to 60 inches.
The Trane Company
offers a complete line of
air diffusers that
accomplish both these
roles quite effectively.
In fact, we hope the only
time you notice our
diffusers is when you
order them.

Blending Function with Beauty
Perforated Diffuser
A popular non-slot type of
diffuser is the perforated diffuser.
This diffuser discharges air in a
round pattern across the ceiling.
Induction Diffuser
Because of its high mixing
efficiency, the induction diffuser
is an excellent choice for high
draft areas.
Ceiling mounted diffusers
are available to provide
either a spreading or
non-spreading air
discharge pattern, giving
them the flexibility to
satisfy most situations.
However, when selecting
a diffuser design, it is
important not only to
consider how it works, but
also how it looks. Trane
offers several types of
diffusers to meet every need.
While the most popular
diffusers are the fixed-vane
linear diffuser and the
adjustable-type diffuser, we
also offer…
Light Fixture Diffuser
The light fixture diffuser is used in
conjunction with suspended
ceiling lights. It is easily
adjustable and adjusts both air
volume and discharge airflow
pattern. The use of this diffuser
requires coordination with the
lighting system.
Light Fixture Diffuser
All Trane linear slot diffusers
deliver conditioned air using a
unique distribution method known
as the Coanda effect.
This design principle discharges
a high velocity jet of conditioned
air along the ceiling surface.
As the air flows away from the
diffuser, its velocity decreases and
it gently falls down into the room.
When the conditioned air falls, it
forces the room air upward
toward the diffuser.
A Diffuser for Every Situation
Coanda Effect
Perforated Diffuser
Diffusers play an essential role in occupant comfort.
At Trane, we have the expertise to help you choose
the right type of diffuser for your building needs.
Then, once your diffusers are installed,
you will never even notice
they’re there.
Since The Trane Company has a policy of continuous product and product data improvement, it reserves the
right to change design and specifications without notice.
